Stephen Shore on the distinction between structure & composition. There are certain kinds of photography where this is less true but I appreciate the insight of bringing order to the world. Storytelling is about what you pay attention to. A way to characterise the difference between media is how to draw that attention

is it more about decisions made to reveal one/some particular orderly interpretation/s (among many possibles)?

to me, it's all part of the same thing! those decisions are driven by what the artist pays attention to (consciously or not) or wants the audience to pay attention to. that focus defines the order/interpretation/narrative. 'attention' might sound trivial; I mean it in the sense of that which constitutes reality for you

yea — same. i share (i think) your pragmatist view of how reality is constructed structure often seems to imply 'objective' reality, vs interpretation which forces the subjectiveness of attention and meaningmaking to the front
